The origonal CSX has been my daily carry since it first came out. No malfunctions. I added talon grips immediately. I never had the "false reset" while firing. Very comfortable all day carry.

Can anyone upodate the availability on the Kimber CDS9? I emailed Kimber a couple of months ago and they said they were "shipping now". Still not seeing them.

If anyone here has one, please post your experience with it.

Jose,

I'll second the 226 SAO Legion. I got one a few months ago. Excellent build quality but haven't fired it yet. Along those lines, after salivating for a year, I got a BUL SAS UL 3.5". Very high quality and shoots like a dream.

Anyone know which direction the manual safty works on the Reflex? If it's up to fire, this is a non issue, I don't want it. If it's down to fire it's a consideration.

I love the FN Reflex. Great gun.

I am looking for others' opinions on carrying a single action only, hammer-fired, with no manual safety. FN specs says it has a 5lb trigger. Mine ranges 4.25 - 5.25lbs. To me, any SAO hammer fired should have a manual safety. Is my brain stuck in 1911 thinking? My ...

I love the idea of a magnet pistol mount under a desk, cabinet, etc. But I'm concerned the magnet will magnetize the handgun... attracting metal shavings all over it. Will that happen?

There was a Tandy Leather in my town years ago. As a kid, I made holsters, belts, knife scabbards, and a wallet. Then I got in to making jewelry with leather and beads. Overall a great experience for a kid. They closed up somewhere in the 70's. I wish my kids would've had an opportunity to "play" at ...

Mike,

You are absolutely correct. Back when I was carrying a Shield in leather the mag release failed to function. The entire release mechanism was rusted and would not release the mag. Required a trip to the gunsmith.

It never occurred to me to grease the mag release before that.

Well, after more than a month of edc I'm still very impressed with this holster. After a couple of days getting used to the clip it's a non-issue.

I work in a very hot environment. 100+ degrees F. My leather holsters would get wet and bleed on my pants and get the firearm all wet. No more bleed ...

I never thought I'd be a kydex kind of guy. I've always used custom made leather holsters. I've tried some kydex in the past and was not impressed. Then I found this place: http://tulster.com/ . VERY impressed. Great design and workmanship. I never thought I'd call a kydex holster attractive but ...

Is yours modified? The reason I ask is my shield has a polymer button for the magazine release. I don't see a way for it to stick due to rusting.

I may have to investigate mine further.

Mine is 100% stock.

If you will eject your mag, turn the handgun upside down and look in the grip with ...

The 9mm Shield has been my EDC for almost a year. This handgun has been flawless until I discovered the following...

The mag release button rusted stuck. Could not eject a mag. Given, I haven't fired or cleaned it in a few months. I saw the brown stuff around the button. I thought it was from the ...

I currently own a Colt Pony, smithed by Scott McDougal, Ruger LCP, S&W M&P Bodyguard. I sold my AMT Backup .380 years ago; way to heavy.

I don't like any of these .380's for varying reasons. The Glock 42 is too big for me for a .380.

Anyone have any experience with the Kahr P380? I'm looking for ...

With summer coming again soon I've been real concerned about settling-in on a .380 pistol. I am not a fan of the .380 but it is the caliber I carry when I decide I'm not going to carry.

The last couple of years has been a Ruger LCP. Small...light...awesome. But I've never been comfortable with ...

No one has ever asked me. I own six retail businesses.
